Owner of the Rolling Cowboys Bicycle Shop, Daniel Gellis talks to Mark and Cristina about how to prep your bike for spring. He suggests always storing your bike away from direct sun, wind water and other weather elements. Bike tires should be checked and the higher the air pressure, the less likely they are to get punctured. You can also use a nail file to even out your brake pads.
